shell is right

i am agreeeing with the reasons you guys left

i do feel for you guys in aussie

the people here dont want the sdu to get a bad name which is why they want to control it in aussie

however i belive that there is enthusiast in aussie who would not let this happend anyway but people here dont seem to trust anyone

i really do hope you guys can get something started over there

Don't blame them one bit. At the same time, no one here is going to be a part of it if they want to control it. Like skyzer said, the name isn't registered here so we can form our own club.

I think it's best if we worked together though, not them controlling us. Success in numbers!

I don't believe that the NZ'ers want to control the whole deal, the forums thing was just needing a big clean up. I think if you were to ask, you would find that they are happy for you's to use the SDU name, be affiliated, but still be your own entity.

Impul 25T,

Dude, I'd love to be a part of some affiliation with them. They have been through everything that we will be going through shortly & we can learn so much from their mistakes. Some people are just cut up about the whole forum thing at the moment but once it all blows over I'm hoping they will see the wisdom of working together.

And yeah, we will definately be our own entity. Keeping this fact in mind I can draw two conclusions.

1. We need our own forum & www, for obvious reasons

2. Since we have our own forum and www, we might as well have our own identity

At the end of the day mate I don't care if we call ourselves 'Skylines Seven Sins' as long as we have a club! :wink:

Wise words.

Also remember, that it was mentioned quite a while ago that Aussie wanted to found a chapter, it was discussed and help was offered, but when push came to shove, nothing ended up happening. I really hope that some form of the club, wether it be SDU AU or whatever else, starts up in Aus and when it does, use the info that the kiwi based club members have. Like you said, they have been there, use the knowledge.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
